Abstract in brief

  • The article analyzes how Belgium's policies on integrated care (IC) for chronic diseases have developed over the past decade, highlighting tensions and power struggles between federal and regional governments caused by decentralization reforms in 2014.
  • Using stakeholder interviews and policy process analysis, the study reveals that political fragmentation and overlapping authorities challenge the implementation of cohesive IC policies, despite the recognized need for integrated healthcare models.
  • Further research is called for to better understand how political and organizational barriers can be addressed to improve the adoption and effectiveness of IC policies within complex multi-level governance systems.
